    slow compilation

    Hey,

    I have a laptop with processor Centrino 1.6 Ghz and I am programming a VB.Net (ADO.Net) and have a back connection to Access. The connection is very slow.

    Can anyone tell me if I get laptop with a multi-threading Pentium4 Processor will help?? Thanks

    if you mean that youre acces backend is not on youre laptop, then it's not gonna help you an bit.

    I guess the slow connection is youre bottleneck, but you can always buy an other laptop and donate this one to me for the advise

    I highly doubt a faster CPU will solve your problem.

    Re: slow compilation

    let me explain my problem well. At the moment I only have one connection running. I am connecting to Access on my computer as a localhost. When I rebuild the solution and get a connection this is very slow. Thus a hyper-threading CPU with a better speed help? I mean a Intel Pentium 4 with 3.0G give me a faster connection??

    No. This sounds like a network bottleneck.

    He's using access via localhost. He's doing it internally which means it doesn't leave his NIC.

    As to the poster, I have no idea. It might help or maybe there is a leak or some obscure bug or something you forgot to do. I don't know VB.Net and/or access very well.

    I stand corrected.

    If its running off the localhost, I'd say its an issue with your code...

    Re: slow compilation

    i have a somewhat similar problem. as the program connects for the first time, there is a considerable lag before the adodc form opens. once it is connected, all is good.

    She is using ADO.NET, there is no adodc control.

    What are you using for your connection - OLEDbConnection, ODBCConnection, etc.
    Also are you sure its just the connection thats slow or some loading of data through a OLEDbDataAdapter, OLEDbCommand, or ???

    Can you post some relevant code?

    What version are you running VB.NET 2002, 2003, or 2005 beta?

    Re: slow compilation

    How much ram do you have? 256 is not enough to happily run XP in my experience.

    I just upgraded to 640 and there have been huge efficiency gains all round.

    But it does sound most likely to be a network bottleneck as mentioned above.
    I don't live here any more.
